Schoen: Gettleman connection

.

The bills success is what put him on their radar

it's likely.

I read that and thought the same thing, but let's hope that was not the case and this was not a Gettleman recommendation.

successor /s

was hired by the Panthers in 2013. Schoen was hired by Parcells in Miami in 2008.

.

you fucking people will never be satisfied.

through Beane.

The test for Schoen to me is what he does with Koncz and Pettit in their positions.

CBSSports put out a piece a few weeks ago detailing a list of potential GM's in this hiring cycle based on talking to a number of people on the list. This is what the writer said about Schoen:

"Joe Schoen, Bills assistant GM: Among all the names on this list, no one's name was mentioned more to me than Schoen's. Considering the diverse amount of voices and backgrounds cultivated to make this list, that speaks loudly. The right hand of Brandon Beane in Buffalo, Schoen is going to be a GM either this year or next."

So it's not like he was a well kept secret

Exactly. Gettleman and Schoen have probably never even been in the same room together but yeah, let’s twist ourselves into pretzels trying to connect the dots..

Exactly. Oy vey.

is if anyone had influence with Giants ties on Mara here, it was Parcells.

regardless of any possible link to DG.

Dozens of articles with his work timeline all over lately. You know he didn't work in Carolina anytime with him.

Connection what connection there is no connection. Oh yeah they both work/worked in the NFL.

Or the fact he helped Beane and McDermott transform a franchise with a long history of losing into a Super Bowl contender in 5 years. Bills had 1 winning season from 2000 to 2017. Sound familiar?

have their day so the rest of us can move on.

Agree.

But only point is that if there was someone who was an ex-Giant who influenced this decision, my guess it was Parcells.

Agreed.

Get me wrong, I love the hire and optimistic for the future. But I wouldn’t be shocked if DG gave Mara a list of football people he knew/respected and we know from the 2017 search he trusts the reccos of former GMs!

that if Schoen even said hello to Gettleman within the last twenty years, half of BBI will want Schoen gone before he even gets off the plane at Newark.
New York Giant PTSD is a real bitch.
Chill guys. What will you do when Schoen does something within the next three months that you strongly disagree with? It’s going to happen, so prepare yourselves. Holy fuck, this place is going nuts.

Mara definitely did not know who he was until Gettelman told him.

And don't forget, our very own FatMan in Charlotte is part of this. He is good friends with Beane.

Beane loved Gettleman therefore FMiC loved Gettleman.

So, let's assume FMiC loves Schoene.

Is there a FMiC hex possibly at play??? ;)

when DG hired him - b/c he's 17 now.

Scorned lover?

This is horrible. We are just getting a younger version of gettlemen

But this guy also fits the Mara profile.Not really a big personality,says the right things,clean cut,etc.

Wet blanket on my joy.

Sure they will, just as long as every thread devolves into " Gettleman sucks". Personally I think it's a bit boorish. Boring as well.

There obviously is a connection. The Giants ownership always operates under some sort of familiarity.

Schoen seems like a strong pick with a solid resume, but the more conservative choice out of the finalist. If they wanted to really stray from their comfort zone, Adam Peters would've been hired.

maybe just pass him a note in study hall and find out...

Jints gonna Jints. That's why we never won anything.
